What is the hem?
lining on women's dresses and skirts has been popular for centuries. The trim is very wide called on the bottom of the hem or skirt. It is much wider than 2-3 inches (5-7 centimeter) called, which is often seen.
The word "flower" is even old. It seems already in Central English as the word frice and comes from the old French word front , which means "diaper". In fact, the hem is pleated to the upper part and then sewn to the clothing. Handal hem adds movement and interest and decoration for clothing. It is considered an elegant accessory to a skirt or dress, although lace or chiffon trims are also popular on luxury linen. Fried sleeve so popular at the end of the 16th and at the beginning of the 17th century is also a type of hem. Lem's hem was very popular in the middle of the 18th century, and after a great hoosh, they debuted. The bite of 15 to 20 inches (38-50 centimeters) was not unusual, especially the balls of young Belle. When she danced, these flouks moved and fluttered, giving a pleasant effect.
The formation of a hem requires a certain skill by the sewer. The material is generally cut in a long rectangle, to the desired width, including a 1/4 -inch allowance (6.3 millimeters). There are two ways to make a hem. The sewer sewerage system can sew long baking in the attachment of long baking along the length of the fabric. The coil threads are then finely pulled out of the material. The fabric begins to wrinkle and the fold and the sewer is left with a pre -collected length of the material, ready to sew for the main clothing.
The second way to produce trim is to cut the fabric again, to the desired width and the right side of the fabric together, sail the fabric manually, as sewn on clothing. This is extremely difficult, because it is so difficult to get folds placed exactly fine and sewn flat.
Some fabric stores sell pre -planned chiffon or other fabrics that have been disturbed to trim the tape, and the sewage must only navogo tape to clothing. This is by far the easiest way to achieve a nice hem.
The sewage interest in learning the technique of Louny Hem is best served by practicing various methods on the scrap material before attempting full clothing.
